In the silence, I hear those midnight chords,
Whispering secrets of a love once adored,
With a hollow ache that echoes in my soul,
Dancin’ in shadows where the lost moments roll.
Velvet dusk wraps 'round like a faded sigh,
While the smoky breeze carries dreams up to the sky,
Every note I play, a somber rhythm plays,
Lingers on my heart like the end of warm days.
A fleeting hum from the streetlight’s glow,
Calls to the memories that I can’t let go,
In this empty room, I feel the weight of time,
Chasing down the ghosts in an old, sad rhyme.
The night’s like a canvas, painted deep and wide,
Every brushstroke whispers of the love that’s died,
But the melody won’t drown in all my pain,
It claws at my heart like a soft, sweet rain.
So I'll strum these midnight chords 'til dawn arrives,
Catchin’ every fleeting moment where the heart survives,
With a hollow ache that leads me to that place,
Where the smoky breeze carries your embrace.
In the twilight’s glow, I’ll find my way back home,
In the somber rhythm, I won’t be alone,
With every note that lingers in the dark,
I’ll keep playin’ on ‘til I find my spark.
And when the mornin’ breaks, I’ll know it’s time to stand,
With these midnight chords, a heart that still can band,
Through the velvet dusk, I’ll let the echoes flow,
Learnin’ to let go of the love I used to know.
Blues
Midnight chords, hollow ache, velvet dusk, smoky breeze, somber rhythm, fleeting hum, shadowed glow
